Bromheadia finlaysoniana
Malaysian names: Seraman in Kelabit, Wi buntak (Iban), Busak paya (Malay) There are 17 species distributed from Sri Lanka across Southeast Asia to Australia. Two Malaysian species, B. brevifolia and B. ruprestris, occur in the highlands. finlaysoniana is a Malaysian lowland species. On some days the flowers are plentiful whereas on other days there are no flowers. This is because when flower buds reach 12 mm in length, their growth abruptly slows down and this allows younger buds to catch up. An unusually cool day accelerates their development and 7 days later the orchid flowers gregariously. Mr. Burkill reported that in Malacca, a decoction of the roots was consumed for rheumatism. In Peninsular Malaysia, flower stalks was chewed for treating asthma. In Sarawak, it was used to treat body aches |
